At 205 inches the Elmiraj concept is:
-Longer than a CTS Coupe by 16 inches

-Longer than a Escalade by 3 inches

-Shorter than a 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class by 1 inch

If there were a CTS Coupe for the next gen it would be on the Alpha platform like the sedan. Here was a render of what a possible CTS coupe could look like


The Elmiraj would share the full size platform with the yet-to-be-shown flagship Cadillac sedan. Like how the new Mercedes S-Class sedan is to spawn a S-Class Coupe.

I don't know if anyone has really noticed the weight on this concept. 4,000 lbs. That is light for a full size coupe like this! For comparison, here's some other cars that weigh more than this 205 in. coupe:


Cadillac Elmiraj
Length: 205 in.
Weight: 4,000 lbs


Audi S5:
Length: 182 in.
Weight: 4,045 lbs


BMW 650i
Length: 192 in.
Weight: 4,275 lbs


Mercedes Benz CL550
Length: 200 in.
Weight: 4,740 lbs


Bentley Continental GT
Length: 189 in.
Weight: 5,060 lbs


Rolls Royce Wraith
Length: 207 in.
Weight: 5,200 lbs

Cadillac has really been putting an importance on lightweight platforms recently. First with the Alpha platform spawning the ATS and upcoming CTS, and now the Omega platform possibly giving us a full size sedan (and coupe) that could weigh 4,000 lbs
